There must be a huge disconnect here with some folks. Martureo pointed out pretty clearly what Jesus said and what the Bible says. Those rules or "policies" if you will seem incredibly clear. What point is there debating the rules for "membership" as some folks put it? A non-Christian or a Christian for that matter would seem incredibly silly arguing that the rules should be changed or modified to fit some other view. It is sort of like the clever poster who posted about some homosexual activist group "re-writing" the Bible so that Scripture now condones such activity. It seems to be a rather clear, binary decision: either you believe or you don't. Those who don't, don't.
